derstanding with that gentleman went
home TO arm himself. Upon his re.
turn TO the scene Of dispute Chatham,
supposing him armed, got the drop"
on him, there was sharp defamation
and he dropped dead, with a shot
through his body. Chatham and
Eoskins both agreed to murder,
each one the ether, because
they could not agree upon q
simple question Of politics. They
knew they were breaking the com
mand OF God-"Thou shalt do nc
murdsr,"-and were violating the
laws Of the State, but they were full
Of the vanity and foolishness that ID
supposed TO be q law Of society
that they must "bsck up" theil

ABOUT STREET PRIvILRaE n.

The policy that prevails a. to street
privileges for railroads, gas, water and
electric light companiesin Europe must
prevail In this country-thsy must be
put mp and sold TO the highest bidder.
The streets are the hig awsys Of the peo-
pie, dedicated 10 their purposes Of city
trade, commerce aud co communication,
aud any other use under the plea Of q
public purpose must be viewed from
. public stand point-from the uses and
possible profit 10 the investors and
the general use and profit 10 the pub.
lie. Hitherto consideration has all
been on one side-that Of the CAPT.
talist-aud the people have been ''lef,."
They must not be LETT any more.
They look TO their public servants TO
see 10 Il that they are not left that the
street privileges are not given asa free
gift TO any persons under any plea.
The trial OF the boodlep In New York
has aroused public attention 10 the
value Of these street privileges. The
people have learned from the develop.
ments there msde that there must have
been great fortunes for hundreds Of
men In stree, railroad, the pre- sctors
Of which could afford 10 bribs the

million or more Of dollars. Suppose

TO have done, ne would now bsamong

held in additional high esteem for
teaching the people the value Of their
stree, railroad privileges. Instead Of
doing this, he gave 81 .0O0, 900 or more

The President at Pore.spor..


FoREsrPoRr, N. Y, July 1.-THE
Presidential party was greeted at the
depot by DR.. A. G.. Brewer and the
Rev. and Mrs. Cleveland and was
driven rapidly from the Alder Greek
station over three miles Of sandy road
10 this village. Arrived at Mr.. Clevs.
lands residence, the guests at once
proceeded to enjoy the rest Of which
the fstiguing lsbors Of the past few days
had put them 80 much In need. The
windows OF their room we're opened
and the curtains cloeely drawn, but
the bretz, from the pine crowned
Adirondack 30 near, drifted down Is zily
and temptingly, and the curtains were
pushed back eighty In order that II
might more freely enter the chamber.
The village contains but three or four
hundred Inhabitants and there was
no crowd on hand to welcome the dis.
tinguissed guests.
After dinner both the President and
Mre. Cleveland appt ared on the yer.
anda cf the parsonage and Mrs. Cleve-
land ran down the steps and walked
about the lawn. Later in the day
commissioner Herman and Postmaster
Waterbury called and arranged for Q
public reception to be held at the par
sonsge tomorrow between the hours
Of 1880 and $3.50. Ate this evening
Postn after Waterbury took the Presi.
dent, Mrs. Cleveland and the Presi-
dents sister-in-law foi an hours drive.
Mrs. Cleveland. who had already
made herself q general iavorits with
the people, won many new friends
during the drive by responding to the
slightest evidence OF recognition.
